Welcome to high security

Montage Bio Elogo

The reader allows the secure identification of users thanks to its multiple identification technologies.

RFID MIFARE® DESFire® EV2 & EV3

The reader supports the latest contactless technologies with the newest data security devices:

  • Secure Messaging EV2: transaction security that protects against interleaving and replay attacks.
  • Proximity Check: protection against relay attacks.

It integrates recognized and approved security mechanisms such as public algorithms and an EAL5+ certified crypto processor to protect your data stored in the reader.

Bluetooth® and NFC smartphones

The smartphone* becomes your access key and erases all the constraints of traditional access control. STid offers 5 identification modes - Prox, long distance or hands-free - to make your access control both secure and instinctive!

*The smartphone can be used as a biometric derogation. There is no fingerprint stored in the virtual card.

Easy Fingerprint management

Montage bioE porte

Different possibilities of fingerprint management depending on your security needs:

  • Fingerprint templates directly stored in the RFID card
    (CNIL French & GDPR European legislation compliance)
  • Fingerprint templates stored in the system
  • Card only mode with derogation at the card level
    (one-time visitor, difficult finger...)
  • Smartphone with biometric unlocking
    or Smartphone only with derogation

Equipped with a backlit keypad, the reader allows multi-factor identification of users by combining the reading of an RFID or virtual card with the input of a personal keypad code.
Thanks to its different operating modes, the keypad can be used for identification or to activate additional functions (alarm...).

 

The highest levels of security

pictos bio antifraudes

Advanced anti-fraud functions

The Architect® Blue biometric reader is designed to resist fraud attempts:

  • False finger detection: the reader detects a wide range of counterfeit fingerprints made of latex, Kapton, transparent film, rubber, graphite, etc.
  • Detection of live fingers
  • Duress finger: the admin can assign a finger number dedicated to authentication when the user is threatened.
  pictos bio accelero

Ultimate self-protection

The patented motion sensor pull detection system protects sensitive data by allowing authentication keys to be erased.

Unlike existing solutions within this market, the reliability of the accelerometer avoids potential system bypass.

  • Plug & Play tool
  • Fully compatible with AGENT, CIMS and STITCH cards
  • Complies with General Data Protection Regulation no. 2016/679 and Standard EN16571

logo sscp US

Readers are compatible with the latest generation of open protocol SSCP® (Secure & Smart Communication Protocol). This protocol recommended by ANSSI uses data encryption (AES) and two-way “reader-controller” authentication to ensure security before any communication is allowed between the reader and the management system.

 

logo sia osdp US

Reader are compatible with the communication protocol SIA Open Supervised Device Protocol - OSDP™ v1 and v2.

Create your own upgradable configuration

The Architect® Blue series is intuitive and dynamic, and consists of 6 interchangeable modules
that can easily be connected to a common smart RFID core.

This easy and cost saving modular approach allows autonomy on the security access management.
